What saison yeast are you using winkle?
I've just kegged a beer with the seasonal French Saison WY3711 and initial tastes are pretty promising.
It fermented down to 1004! (I checked this on separate days because I didn't believe the first reading) with no issues and mucking about with 30+C temps which I read some other yeasts have had trouble with.

Wyeast 3726 Farmhouse, a pretty well behaved yeast, at 20C 8-9 days fermented down to 1010 then stopped for both batches so far. This one will be slightly stronger and spicer. :icon_cheers:

Brewing on Saturday but thought i would throw the recipe out a few days prior since its the first time i have attempted to brew something outside my comofrt zone (not that i dont like having a constant supply of golden ale and landlord.....)

I have a wyeast 2000 yeast cake ready to use.

I have several kgs of weyermann vienna.

I have a pack of NS flowers.

Cant see why the combo wouldnt work but calling it an Oktoberfest is probably stretching the friendship...

Any thoughts/comments/criticisms?

Brewing on Sunday

A Chilli and Kaffir Lime summer ale,
Thats if I can find some kaffir...

Decided to use Mt Hood, not quite sure why.

I see that it is mainly used for aroma. How do you think it will go with bittering?????

A Chilli and Kaffir Lime summer ale,
Thats if I can find some kaffir...

Decided to use Mt Hood, not quite sure why.

I see that it is mainly used for aroma. How do you think it will go with bittering?????

ok Im not going to get shitty that nobody helping me out (he he he)...
Not quite sure of the quanity of Mt Hood as yet but thinking 60 min and flame out.

Still need to decide weather to go dried chilli or fresh chilli. I made a amatriciana pasta last night that had dried chilli in it and loved the flavour. Maybe some dried chilli in with the boil. And some fresh into the fermenter with the kaffir lime leaves. I have tonight and tommorow to think about it.

 

[raven19]

ok Im not going to get shitty that nobody helping me out (he he he)...

Sorry Katie, I wish I could give you some advice! Maybe butters can expand?

I like chilli in most things...

Please keep us informed how it goes!

Cheers!

I was only kidding due to the silly thread this morning. Sometimes I get a little impatient as people normally do help out (and Im leaving my PC soon). I usually find what Im after by doing a SEARCH! I will keep you informed..

A good localish possibility for the Kaffir Leaves is Tony Ales
I'm looking forward to hearing about the outcome of this drop.

Who cares what you call it, it sounds very good. :icon_drool2: From the recipe it kind of looks like you could almost call it a Northern German Altbier.

 

[Tony]

Got out of work early.......... had my grain cracked last night, rig set up, just phoned ahead and had the better half switch it on for me.

My Belgian Strawberry Blond which I'm planning to brew on Sunday. Since that's the first full day off of daylight savings time around here, I'm contemplating a time-themed name. [OT: I'm reminded of an email joke I got from a friend regarding DST. An elderly native man, upon hearing about DST, remarked "Only a white man would cut a foot off the bottom of a blanket, sew it to the top, and claim he had a longer blanket." But I digress..... ]

23l

45% JW Pils
45% JW Wheat Malt
5% Wey Carapils
5% Torrified Wheat

Bitterd with EKG 20 IBU
Aroma with Hall Mitilfreu

? Lemon zest
? Dried Chilli

Wyeast 1056

If anyone can help me with the lemon and chilly that would be grouse.

I'll even give you a tip for the cup!

Thanx for ya Help.

[Tony]

Oh man you should smell all that saaz boiling.

Hit all my temps perfect, crystal clear wort to the kettle........... i love my HERMS

Tested pre boil wort............ on target for 80 to 85% efficiency to the fermenter!

I Will post a pic of the drained mash later on............ the husks are whole but empty. Looks like un cracked grain. Wetting the husks before milling helps heaps. And milling slow helps too.

cheers
